Thanks everyone. No worries Thomas, I'm not concerned about your tune destroying anything. I've heard good things about GIAC. I still have 40 some days left in my trip until I can look at this. I plan on visiting a few places before making a decision, just wanted to see what everyone else though about specific garages. I guess I should've named the thread 'best SoCal garage' or something like that. Being in Carlsbad I'm looking for something super local. I have one more warrantied service that's due now, so I'll complete that when I get home, then coils, chip, and exhaust within the next few months. I'll do the coils myself, the rest I'm looking for someone with some talent and great customer service. I'll swing by TAG and PureMS and see how the environment looks. Maybe I'll find some more places by then. I'll PM in May or June Thomas!

As far as the tunes I know all the numbers; however, I think most of my GIAC research is off old numbers. Every article/thread I have saved is at least a year old and references either 'custom' tunes or they only go as far as stage I. I'll keep digging and digging. I'm really focusing all my effort towards Stage II+. Again though, not to get anyone confused as I love to do my own research on the hard numbers, I'm looking for garage advice. :)
